Oregon to allow limited fans at outdoor sporting events
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -- The Portland Timbers and the Portland Thorns will be able to welcome a limited number of fans back to home soccer games starting next month.
The Oregon Health Authority says outdoor sporting events can be held at 25% capacity. That’s approximately 6,500 people at Providence Park.
The Thorns will host the first professional sporting event in Oregon with fans since the coronavirus shutdown when they host Kansas City on April 9 in the National Women’s Soccer League's preseason Challenge Cup Tournament.
